Installing imageio¶
Imageio is written in pure Python, so installation is easy. Imageio works on Python 3.5+. It also works on Pypy. Imageio depends on Numpy and Pillow. For some formats, imageio needs additional libraries/executables (e.g. ffmpeg), which imageio helps you to download/install.
To install imageio, use one of the following methods:
- If you are in a conda env:
conda install -c conda-forge imageio
- If you have pip:
pip install imageio
- Good old
python setup.py install
After installation, checkout the examples and user api.
